Description:
I have been doing a little research on The Beachcomber restaurant that was located in Calgary. It was the fifth Beachcomber restaurant opened in the chain.

I found this article from 1966 announcing the expansion of the Calgary restaurant with a new dining room.


Photo of the interior.

Some of the story.



Entertainment ads.

The restaurant burned down in 1972 and a Fireman died in the blaze.

Have not seen a postcard or other photo evidence from this one.
